The Answering Voice: One Hundred Love Lyrics by Women. 1917. | | | | Found | | By Josephine Preston Peabody |
| | | OH, when I saw your eyes, | |
| So old it was, so new, the hushed surprise: | |
| After a long, long search, it came to be, | |
| Home folded me. | |
| |
| And looking up, I saw | 5 |
| The far, first stars like tapers to my awe, | |
| In the dim hands of hid, benignant Powers, | |
| At search long hours. | |
| |
| And did they hear us call, | |
| That they have found us children after all? | 10 |
| And did you know, O Wonderful and Dear, | |
| That I was here? | | | | |
